Hydrogen transport and rationalization of porosity formation during welding of titanium alloys
The transport of hydrogen during fusion welding of the titanium alloy Ti-6Al4V is analyzed. A coupled thermodynamic/kinetic treatment is proposed for the mass transport within and around the weld pool. The modeling indicates that hydrogen accumulates in the weld pool as a consequence of the thermody...
